Eight years since starting out in Nashville, the Louisiana native’s previous 6 albums, 5 of which ranked on the Billboard Country Charts with two Top 10 and two Top 20 albums, has even opened for one of his biggest musical influences, Hank Williams Jr.

The former oilfield man turned entertainer, came to the LifeMinute.TV studios to talk all about his new music and why it’s the best he’s ever done, combining a “special blend” of straight-ahead country, southern rock n’ roll and love ballads.

The singer-songwriter who only records songs he writes, says he finds inspiration from his own life and from the concert-goers he meets after each of his shows.

Maybe that explains why he already has hundreds of fans signed up for his upcoming concert cruise in February.
